Marlon Hoffstadt

"Feel everything. Complete joy, completely letting go, raise your hands and sing along. Don't be too cool, just play whatever you want." Meet Marlon Hoffstadt, AKA DJ Daddy Trance, the anti-purist dance floor hero turning club culture inside out. A former Berlin club kid turned young father, today he finds himself an unstoppable factory of life-affirming anthems that inject the DGAF fun of pop music into unhinged club destroyers. It's an approach so unconventional he thought it might end his career. Instead, it made him the biggest DJ in his hometown of Berlin and a sensation around the world, selling out 20,000-ticket events as far afield as Australia and playing his first US gig at Electric Daisy Carnival for 70,000 people. Too poppy for the underground, too ravey for the mainstream, never really fitting in and not really caring, Marlon is unapologetically Marlon, a man dedicated to the simple mission of making you feel more than you've ever felt.
